Are you preparing for the winter season by adjusting your food diet that you broke in the summer?

The summer season is very active and our food becomes very diversified, our eating habits are disrupted, dinners are served very late, and thus our sleep patterns are disrupted.

Just as every living thing in nature prepares itself for winter, changes are also taking place in the human body. During this transition period, it is very important to regulate our sleep patterns as well as our nutrition and to protect the body from today in order to survive the winter healthily.

So, what exactly is changing and how will we manage to adapt our lives to this system?

Winter is a period of threat to the bodies of all living things. In fact, when the Turks lived in tents, surviving the winter was an important honor. It was known that between 20% and 35% of the society lost their lives due to extreme cold. The body, which still poses a threat to all living things today, thickens its subcutaneous tissue and tries to resist the cold. Therefore the body gains weight. And he becomes a little still. If you feel this in your own body, it is time to get active and continue your diet. Otherwise, weight gain will continue in the fall. Since the body also perceives sleeplessness as a threat, insomnia is also seen as one of the important reasons for weight gain. Just as the body retains water and thirst to recover from the trauma, it also tends to increase weight. Good sleep will create comfort in the body and accelerate weight loss. At the same time, this is the right time if you are planning a food regimen to prepare for winter.

Increase antioxidants and reduce carbohydrates, floury and sugary foods. Reduce animal protein. Eat plenty of greens and fruits with little sugar. You gave your body a detox period.
